Outpost 42 - Server Updates
Monday, 17th March 2025
New runes have been added to the server, inspired by the Opposing Force style of gameplay. These runes provide various power-ups, adding an extra layer of strategy and competition to the game. Below are the additional available runes and their effects:
- Damager Rune: Increases the damage output of all weapons, allowing you to deal more devastating blows to your opponents.
- Backpack Rune: Constantly restores your ammo over time and increases the maximum primary ammo capacity for certain weapons.
- Health Regenerator Rune: Increases your health up to a maximum of 150 HP and continuously regenerates health while active.
- Armour Regenerator Rune: Functions similarly to the Health Regenerator Rune but applies to armour instead, increasing it up to 150 and regenerating it over time.
All runes can now be discarded using the drop_rune
command in the console. For convenience, you can bind this command to a key to make dropping runes quicker and easier.

Finally, let’s put the Egon to good use! Outpost 42 has always been a BubbleMod server, where the Egon was transformed into a bubble gun. That remains true, but now it has even more firepower—alongside bubbles, it can fire snarks and even function as a teleportation device.
Rather than just zapping foes, you can now unleash snarks with the Egon, provided you’ve acquired some. Additionally, you can teleport to another area of the map, leaving behind three snarks to fight off any enemies you were dealing with.
Teleportation consumes 60 uranium ammo per use, so be mindful of your reserves. This weapon is pure chaotic fun—experiment and cause some mayhem!

Xen Shall Never Yield!
Pray to the Snark Gods by typing snarkparty in chat, and if they are pleased, they will bless everyone on the server with 5 snarks each. This can create absolute chaos, especially on smaller maps!
Outpost 42 is a snark-friendly server—so if you’re not a fan of these mischievous critters, this may not be the place for you.
Let the Snark Party begin!

The Kamikaze feature is enabled on this server, inspired by the original AdminMod plugin that turned players into ticking time bombs. You can activate this feature by typing kamikaze into the chat. Once triggered, you will begin ticking like a bomb, leaving behind an orange trail with sparks and particles as you move. Only one person can active the bomb at a time.
The Kamikaze effect lasts for 20 seconds before culminating in a powerful explosion, instantly killing you and anyone unfortunate enough to be nearby. If you are killed while Kamikaze is active, the effect will reset.
To manually deactivate Kamikaze before detonation, use the drop_rune command in the console.
